Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission represents a legitimate business (DataLion GmbH) but is severely penalized for extremely low-quality input data and objectively false claims (e.g., audience reach: 'everyone', traction: 'most people have used my product'). While the underlying software has real-world utility as a market research dashboard, the lack of verifiable metrics and the nonsensical description in the submission prevents a higher score.
